Few people can claim more thorough knowledge and understanding of the Soviet system than Zbigniew Brzezinski. This is the original book that explained and predicted the demise of the Soviet Union.

Brzezinski properly predicted that the introduction of political reforms without economic reforms would bring the system to an eventual grind.

Divided into six parts, this well-documented, readable book describes Lenin’s conspiracy of power to force a destruction of society by mass terrorism; consolidation of one-party rule behind a facade of intellectual and cultural openness; and the creation of a system that allowed Stalin to pulverize society and nurtured Brezhnev’s party-boss corruption, economic backwardness, social stagnation, and the vested interests of totalitarian leaders.

Brzezinski explores the dilemma of changes confronting Soviet leaders, and explains why he believes that communism will be unable to make these changes. He provides readers with some masterful insights into what has happened and what could happen.

  • Stepping Down from the Stars - Alexandra Costa

    Stepping Down From a Star

    Alexandra Costa

    A dramatic true story of the first Soviet female diplomat that decided to remain in Washington rather than return to USSR.

    In August 1978 the wife of a first secretary at the Soviet embassy defected to the United States with her two young children, seeking opportunity for them all to control their own lives. For seven years she lived under the assumed name of Alexandra Costa until the publicized return of defector Vitaly Yurchenko prompted her to talk about the way defectors are treated by the CIA.

  • Grigory Rasputin - My Pilgrimage to Jerusalem

    My Pilgrimage to Jerusalem (bilingual)

    Grigory Rasputin

    Hundreds of books have been written about Rasputin, but very few people know that Rasputin himself authored a book. My Pilgrimage to Jerusalem was written as a gift for Tsar Nicholas II in 1915, in a print run of only 50 copies.

    There are few figures in history to whom so much research has been devoted; and about whom so much media, including biographies, memoirs, novels, films and even an opera, have been created, than the Siberian “wise man” Grigory Rasputin (1869-1916).

  • Перо сильнее меча: Борьба с советской пропагандой - Лев Шапиро

    The Pen is Mightier than the Sword: Battling with Soviet Propaganda

    Lev Shapiro

    The Pen is Mightier than the Sword: Battling with Soviet Propaganda presents a new window into the struggle of Soviet Jews for their freedoms and rights. This was an intellectual barricade at which the activists, utilizing Soviet law, regulations and the Constitution itself, safeguarded meaningful tidbits of freedom within the Soviet totalitarian system.

    Each chapter of this Exodus should be read and reread in each generation. Shapiro was not merely another Jewish activist, but was one of its leaders and the only witness for the defense at the famous trial of the “hijackers of the airplane”.
